Coastal Living Magazine

Pros: Superior photography and editorial content

Cons: Only six issues a year

Review: COASTAL LIVING's first issue was published in May 1997. Featuring six issues a year, this magazine is a first of it's kind. It's a total lifestyle magazine for people who live or vacation on the coast and for all of us who dream of living there. The...

Pros: The photographs and personal articles

Cons: Only eight issues per year; Centers on very expensive property and merchandise

The Bottom Line: Coastal Living is an enjoyable magazine that keeps you in tune with the fun times that come with living next to a major coastline.

Review: Coastal Living is a publication that concentrates its articles on homes, travel, and other things related to living and thriving in a coastal environment. It bills itself as “The Magazine for People who Love the Coast” and it makes a good choice of ...

Pros: Beautiful photography

Cons: Tons of ads, articles are all over the place (relevance)

The Bottom Line: Its a beautiful upscale magazine with "sunny" editorial that tries to cover every coast.

Review: I have a love/hate relationship with Coastal Living magazine. As someone who lives on the coast, the Maine Coast to be specific, and as someone who frequents the coast in Florida and CT when visiting relatives I have a great interest in a magazine for ...

Pros: Beautiful pictures, good idea's for vacation

Cons: Too many advertisements

Review: I recently purchased the magazine, "Coastal Living, The Magazine for People Who Love The Coast." The $3.95 I spent on it was well worth the price. The magazine is in excess of 228 pages, of stories and the most magnificent...

Pros: Fantastic, high quality pictures

Cons: bi-monthly publication; subscribers beware

Review: I subscribed to Coastal Living after leafing through a copy at my Doctor's office a few years ago. I was immediatley hooked on the gorgeous photos, the feeling of a piece of the sea shore being in my hands through the pages. I am a summer time ocean...

Pros: brings the coast to your doorstep

Cons: photos are sometimes "too-focused"

Review: The pure essence of “coastal living” isn’t found in a specific locale but, rather, in a state of mind. Regardless of whether you find yourself landlocked on a farm in the Midwest, in a log cabin high in the Colorado Rockies, or surviving the frozen...

Pros: Fabulous Images

Cons: Too many adds.

The Bottom Line: I like the magazine but it's too pricey and though it offers images and stories of beautiful properties, I really like a more simple style of waterfront property.

Review: Coastal Living Magazine is a higher-end, large-sized, magazine that comes out about eight issues a year. My wife first started reading it when we started to explore shorelines of the Caribbean more than we ever had before. We happen to enjoy the ...

Pros: beautiful pictures of homes and coastal areas

Cons: written for the super-rich not "people who love the coast"

The Bottom Line: After receiving Coastal Living for 2 years, I feel like I'm reading the same stories about rich people over and over again.

Review: I have grown up and lived 10 minutes from the ocean for all of my 28 years. I have spent a large chunk of my life swimming in the ocean, fishing in the bay, and sunning myself on the beach. A magazine "For People Who Love The Coast" sounded like a ...
